Daily Observations !!

r through the streets is as uncalled for a
2 it is foolish. We have noticed one maj
: especially, dashing through the street!
and around the corners, in manne
which scarcely gave anybody time to ge
, out of the way. Such fellows have n
business to be entrusted with horses.
-. The police had quite fight with
g young man named Tom Gillis, this after
noon, getting him to the calaboose. -.
Celery, of choice style, in market.....
James Miller, of this place has had hi
pension increased, so has James X. Camp
bell, of Jimes. 500. The agent of Sell
Brothers big show, is here, looking up ;
date for this place, on the 23d of Septem
: Der. This was done perhaps to get th'
advantage of the Reunion crowd, but tn,
show of itself will add to the great crowt
that will be here. 1t will be an immense
day for Jackson =. ELI Moore. driver
of the street-cart, is on the sick list.
THURsDAY-The street Commissioner
is making vigorous war on the dog-fen
mel. ..... The hosting house at Fulton
is about up. Thomas Roderick has
purchased the lot of Judge Miller, upon
which Roderick built his house by mis-
take. .... Allie Ewing returned from q
visit down the Railroad-at Jimes we be-
ieve. ...... Mrs. Patterson. of Wellston
is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Wallace
Caldwell. ..... The Jones Camp Meet
ing had big time at Beaver last night
good attendance and interesting meet
ing. ...... In mentioning Abner Pyles
book last week, we were mistaken as to
the name-instead of "Wonders of the
World" it should have been, "Wonders OF
Earth, Sea, and Sky" 1t is an interest
ing work ...... Mrs. James Remfry gave
a supper party to a number of friends
this evening. ...... Tom Delay is thresh-
ing-or getting ready to thresh-at Alf
Lewis to-day. 1t required the taking of
one engine from town to pull the other
up the Dickson hill. ....... Mrs. Leck
Foster, of Bainbridge, is visiting Mrs. S.
S. Hawk k.... Mr.. and Mrs. J. M. Live
| Iy returned from their trip to the lakes
....... Irvine DUNCAN returned from
Columbus. Mr.. DUNCAN will perhaps be
at the head of the Democratic State Com
mittee. They have to have Jackson men
at Columbus. They are in demand ev-
eryWhere. After much Sweltering
and putting, and mopping, with the ther-
mometer dancing and glimmering around
9S in the shade, there appeared little
sickly rain in the evening, as though it
were afraid of wetting the ground. ......
Will Hudson is operating with the Saliva
tion Army here again, having returned
from Marietta. The fire boys will
have to keep cool heads when running to
fire, after getting their new uniforms.
If they should hustle out. pell-mell, and
Sam Stevenson should jump into Dick
Stiffler's uniform, the effect would be
startling.
FRIDAY.-Recorder Bennett and Mar
shal Martin returne from Dayton. The
story that the Jackson knights had got
ten lost and failed to reach Dayton, was
erroneous. -. DIR. Phillips, of Beaver,
was in town this morning, coming
through in buggy. The Doctor is look
ing remarkably fat and healthy. Hon.
l.. M. Beman, of CentrevilIe, is in town
to-day .... The Meigs County Republi-
can says Jackson County has thrown up
the nail mill and gone into the building
of s. band stand. Bro. Dumble, you are
mistaken. We're going to have them all.
-. School Examiners in session. Har-
barger's time has expired. but successor
not yet appointed. .... Thomas l.. Evans
called to-day. He recently graduated at
College at Ypsilanti, Michigan. wv.
T. Morgan recently graduated at Ada,
Ohio. 49,. Ed. Thompson, of Wellston,
has been visiting among his Jackson
friends to-day Maj. Ball, Salvation
ist, is at Wellston. IA. j. Wolfe went
to Wellston this evening, to attend the
meeting of the order of Rechabites.
Thermometer to-day got as high as 9S,
though the day seemed the hottest yet.
Doctor Holcomb and Lawyer Jones
have moved into their offices over the
Bank. Mr.. Aaron Mclaughlin was
overcome by the heat to-day while walk
ing along the street here, and was seri-
ously affected for time. He described
his sensations as rather queer. He seemed
to know the direction he wanted to go,
but seemed helpless and unable to get to
any point aimed at. He was attended by
DIR. Kitchen, and soon rallied so as to be
able to go about.
SATURDAY.-The weather cooled off
beautifully, but no rain worth speaking
of. -. William F. Yerian, one of Liber-
ty's best citizens, called to-day. -. The
G. A. r. Post had good meeting, tonight,
called together by Lewis, Gray and Jen-
kins' sheepskin band. Some of the boys
will probably go to Keystone next Satur-
day, to attend the bean dinner, and Sol
diers' picnic there. 49,. We had a pleas
ant call to-day from Rev. T. r. Crooks, of
Coalition. Mr.. Crooks is one of the most
earnest and tireless of the young Chris
tian workers, and pleasant gentleman
to meet. The young folks have "moon-
light party" at Henson's tonight. The
party was all right, but the moon was a
little lazy about getting up. Miss
Helen Hoyt, who has been visiting at
Mayor Jones returned to her home in
Athens this morning. This little lady
has lots of friends in Jackson. We
received letter from Mr.. John Daniel
Brown, of North Carolina. Mr.. Brown
will be remembered by all our older citi-
zens as the son of the late Banister Brown.
John has been in North Carolina for a
number of years. He is suffering yet
from disease contracted in the army-or
rather from hurt sustained, -. Frank
Smith has been in very poor health for
some time, but is improving considerably.
-. There is talk now of the Nail Mill
being placed in different location, per-
haps in the Humphfres meadow, nearer
Salt Creek than the old site. We cannot
say when the work will be begun, as there
are, we understand, few lots still unsold.
It is now contemplated to build brick
